FAQ
1. Does the advertiser name affect the ad category?
It does not. The ad design defines the category, not the advertised offer or respectively - advertiser name.
Case:
Offer: Bitcoin Profit
Advertiser name: Bitcoin Profit
Ad unit: luxury life of a young couple
Category: Options
Since the ad design does not focus specifically on cryptocurrencies, the category is not set to “Currencies”, but to “Options”.
2. What can be done if both the domain name and product name are not acceptable?
Please come up with an alternative name that is close to the product name and gives the user an understanding of its nature.
Case
cnnmoneyreports - unacceptable domain name (CNN endorsement)Weed Millionaire - unacceptable product name (“weed”)Money Reports, Golden Millionaire
3. Should I skip the advertiser name for content campaigns?
No, content campaigns possess advertiser names just as any other campaign. Please check the tips and how-tos to set the correct advertiser name.
4. I’m still concerned about brand names and social media platforms of the web pages and channels we work with
If you run web pages or social media accounts officially registered via Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, YouTube, Twitter, etc., please mention the product or service name instead of using the domain name of the branded platform. Otherwise, the name will not represent the origin of the offer owner.
